Nuvo manual Making the Connection, Operating the T2 with the Concerto Display Pad

Making the Connection Fig. 29

Prior to connecting to NuVoNet, the Concerto must have the correct Configuration version downloaded with the T2 representing two of the audio sources.

Making the NuVoNet connection is done simply by connecting the “NuVoNet” output on the T2 to one of the “Peripheral Device” inputs on the Concerto EZ Port, fig. 28. This connection will then enable bi- directional NuVoNet communication with the Display Pads.

By following the previous steps you should now be able to operate the T2 from any of the Concerto Display Pads. The Concerto Display Pads have secondary tuner functions silk-screened on the bezel below the associated keys. They appear under the appropriate function buttons, fig. 29.

Step Tune: Basic step tuning is done by pressing the left or right arrows labeled Tune.

Seek Tune: Seek tuning automatically seeks to the next frequency that meets the set signal strength threshold (see T2 Configuration Software, Advanced Settings, Tuning Parameters pg. 22). This is done by pressing the left and right arrows labeled Seek (see fig. 29).

Scan Tune: Scan tuning automatically tunes to the next available station frequency that meets the signal threshold (as described above in the Seek Tune Mode). Scan tune allows the T2 to settle on a frequency for 5 seconds and then automatically go to the next frequency. To select the station, push the “ENT” button before the T2 resumes station scanning. Scan tuning is initiated by pressing the “PLAY” button, also labeled “Scan” (see fig. 29).

Tuning by Categories: The provided genre categories are defined in the T2 Configuration software (see NV-

T2DF Configuration Software, Advanced Settings,

Categories, pg. 24). You can use the stop and pause buttons, also labeled “Categories,” to scroll up or down through the defined categories. Once you have chosen a category, the Seek up and Seek down buttons will automatically tune through any frequency within that category selection.

Again, the categories and the frequencies within each category must be first assigned within the T2 Configuration software.

Radio Data Service: The Display Pad will scroll received Radiotext data if the tuned station is broadcasting it and if signal strength is sufficient. When a defined preset is selected, the name of that preset will appear on the display momentarily. If Radiotext RDS data is being broadcast, it will then automatically begin scrolling. This takes a few moments while the information buffers.

Direct Numeric Entry Tuning: Accessing direct tuning is done by pressing the +10 button (see fig. 27). This toggles between banks of presets (the T2 Configurator software allows for 10 banks each with 10 presets) and direct tune. When Direct Tune appears on the display, a frequency can be numerically entered using the numeric keypad on the Display Pad. When you are entering a frequency number, it is not necessary to enter the decimal, i.e.

102.7.The entered numbers will appear on the display. When the ENT button is pressed, the T2 will tune to that station.

Source Switching (radio band, aux input): The bottom row of buttons on the Concerto Display Pad are assigned FM, AM, WX (Weather Band), and Aux. Changing the T2 source is done simply by pressing one of those four buttons, (see fig. 29).
